Public speaker for conferences and events.

As a speaker I like to engage the audience with stories, participation and reflection – and I try to add in a bit of humour too, sometimes with success!

I have delivered a number of keynote speeches and given workshops at forest school, outdoor play and outdoor learning conferences over the last few years. I have also been a key facilitator for the week long Art of Mentoring event organised by Nature Culture Scotland since 2010 and told many a story at festivals and around fires at gatherings over the years.

Although I would be able to write a speech to go with a theme, here are some of the speeches I have ready to go, with accompanying workshops
